Francaise Dinner -the event

[robinsnest]

Okay I have so much to say (okay photos to share) that I'm gonna break this into a AWESOME event post and a What I wore post. And really the AWESOME EVENT post is more interesting anyway right? Right! Glad we're on the same page.

Let me start by saying how crazy beautiful everyone looked! I'm running out of adjectives for how stunning and vibrant the company was!




Aren't we a fabulous lookin' group?

Rob very nicely dropped us off, which was good as I could barely get into the car, forget finding the pedals! And he hung around and took some nice photos of us. I'll try to keep this to just my total favorites..but I love so many of them!



A toast to the hostess with the mostess! I cannot thank madamekat enough for all the effort she put into this amazing event.






She had a SHIP in her hair! A SHIP!




















I had such an amazing time I have to heartily thank everyone who came and shared this special evening with me. I felt honored to share the company of such amazing, talented, beautiful, and FUNNY people. I laughed to the point of breaking the pin holding my stomacher on! I smiled till my face hurt! So thank you all for sharing such a wonderful experience with me!!

Love the pics you got, the toast is especially wonderful. Looks like a blast!

There was an ever increasing number of toasts that got sillier and sillier, at one point I'm pretty sure we were toasting to wigs :-D

We were definitely toasting to wigs! Which then was made out to be a toast to Whigs...which it was decided was rather appropriate considering all our apparent social status! xD

It looks like it was an amazing time.

It was really a lot of fun! Very easy to forget there was anything unusual about our party until you'd realize the hallway was full of people trying to peek in.

Yeah, our reenactment unit had a party at Washingtons Crossing Inn and we got those same looks. :-) All the pictures of me from that event were FAIL... My shift sleeves were sticking out way to low and loose. Ugh... Why didn't someone tell me? :-)
